One more question. Could someone please check on his 70-200 II lens, if he also notice a bit of movement on focus ring (up/down, left/right). On mine, there is bit of play before the focus ring really grabs. Because if I compare it to the zoom ring, that one is solid with no play in any direction. Thanks

Absolutely no play on mine.

Nor mine.

nor on mine, and I'm known to play with my zoom ring

Very minimal on mine, basically only detectable when "wiggling" (turning) the ring back and forth with two fingers barely without any force.The focus ring makes a small clicking noise on the "far ends", the movement is something like a tenth of a degree, but it is there.

In normal use, it cannot be detected.

It's also very minimal on mine, only detectable when turning the ring with minimal force. Actually I think I was born with a "fault" that I notice every little detail. Perhaps, every copy has this amount of play (if I could call this a play).

That's why I bought the EF 10-400 L IS, for the second time, coz it extends from 100mm to 400mm - pure delight At 1:53 mins into the video, you can see a girl in blue jacket checking out Kai having fun with the lens Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM Lens Review

I've had two copies of the Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS II and both copies had the same amount of slight play/wiggle on my 5D MKIII.

All of my other Canon and Nikon lenses fit like gloves on their bodies, so I'm not sure why the Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS II seems to have this issue. Frankly, it is a bit annoying that the lens doesn't fit the body like a glove since it's a high quality lens.
